2008-03-12gc: call "prune --expire 2.weeks.ago" by defaultLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+4
The only reason we did not call "prune" in git-gc was that it is an inherently dangerous operation: if there is a commit going on, you will prune loose objects that were just created, and are, in fact, needed by the commit object just about to be created. Since it is dangerous, we told users so. That led to many users not even daring to run it when it was actually safe. Besides, they are users, and should not have to remember such details as when to call git-gc with --prune, or to call git-prune directly. Of course, the consequence was that "git gc --auto" gets triggered much more often than we would like, since unreferenced loose objects (such as left-overs from a rebase or a reset --hard) were never pruned. Alas, git-prune recently learnt the option --expire <minimum-age>, which makes it a much safer operation. This allows us to call prune from git-gc, with a grace period of 2 weeks for the unreferenced loose objects (this value was determined in a discussion on the git list as a safe one). If you want to override this grace period, just set the config variable gc.pruneExpire to a different value; an example would be [gc] pruneExpire = 6.months.ago or even "never", if you feel really paranoid. Note that this new behaviour makes "--prune" be a no-op. While adding a test to t5304-prune.sh (since it really tests the implicit call to "prune"), also the original test for "prune --expire" was moved there from t1410-reflog.sh, where it did not belong.

2008-03-05Teach git mergetool to use custom commands defined at config timeLibravatar Charles Bailey1-2/+23
Currently git mergetool is restricted to a set of commands defined in the script. You can subvert the mergetool.<tool>.path to force git mergetool to use a different command, but if you have a command whose invocation syntax does not match one of the current tools then you would have to write a wrapper script for it. This patch adds two git config variable patterns which allow a more flexible choice of merge tool. If you run git mergetool with -t/--tool or the merge.tool config variable set to an unrecognized tool then git mergetool will query the mergetool.<tool>.cmd config variable. If this variable exists, then git mergetool will treat the specified tool as a custom command and will use a shell eval to run the command with the documented shell variables set. mergetool.<tool>.trustExitCode can be used to indicate that the exit code of the custom command can be used to determine the success of the merge.

2008-03-05log/show/whatchanged: introduce format.pretty configurationLibravatar Denis Cheng1-0/+5
When running log/show/whatchanged from the command line, the user may want to use a preferred format without having to pass --pretty=<fmt> option every time from the command line. This teaches these three commands to honor a new configuration variable, format.pretty. The --pretty option given from the command line will override the configured format. The earlier patch fixed the in-tree callers that run these commands for purposes other than showing the output directly to the end user (the only other in-tree caller is "git bisect visualize", whose output directly goes to the end user and should be affected by this patch). Similar fixes will be needed for end-user scripts that parse the output from these commands and expect them to be in the default pretty format.

2008-02-24url rewriting: take longest and first matchLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+2
Earlier we had a cop-out in the documentation to make the behaviour "undefined" if configuration had more than one insteadOf that would match the target URL, like this: [url "git://git.or.cz/"] insteadOf = "git.or.cz:" ; (1) insteadOf = "repo.or.cz:" ; (2) [url "/local/mirror/"] insteadOf = "git.or.cz:myrepo" ; (3) insteadOf = "repo.or.cz:" ; (4) It would be most natural to take the longest and first match, i.e. - rewrite "git.or.cz:frotz" to "git://git.or.cz/frotz" by using (1), - rewrite "git.or.cz:myrepo/xyzzy" to "/local/mirror/xyzzy" by favoring (3) over (1), and - rewrite "repo.or.cz:frotz" to "git://git.or.cz/frotz" by favoring (2) over (4).

This allows users with different preferences for access methods to the same remote repositories to rewrite each other's URLs by pattern matching across a large set of similiarly set up repositories to each get the desired access. For example, if you don't have a kernel.org account, you might want settings like: [url "git://git.kernel.org/pub/"] insteadOf = master.kernel.org:/pub Then, if you give git a URL like: master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-2.6.git it will act like you gave it: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-2.6.git and you can cut-and-paste pull requests in email without fixing them by hand, for example.

2008-02-23pack-objects: Add runtime detection of online CPU'sLibravatar Andreas Ericsson1-0/+2
Packing objects can be done in parallell nowadays, but it's only done if the config option pack.threads is set to a value above 1. Because of that, the code-path used is often not the most optimal one. This patch adds a routine to detect the number of online CPU's at runtime (online_cpus()). When pack.threads (or --threads=) is given a value of 0, the number of threads is set to the number of online CPU's. This feature is also documented. As per Nicolas Pitre's recommendations, the default is still to run pack-objects single-threaded unless explicitly activated, either by configuration or by command line parameter. The routine online_cpus() is a rework of "numcpus.c", written by one Philip Willoughby <pgw99@doc.ic.ac.uk>. numcpus.c is in the public domain and can presently be downloaded from http://csgsoft.doc.ic.ac.uk/numcpus/ Signed-off-by: Andreas Ericsson <ae@op5.se> Signed-off-by: Brandon Casey <casey@nrlssc.navy.mil> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-02-09Introduce the config variable pack.packSizeLimitLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+6
"git pack-objects" has the option --max-pack-size to limit the file size of the packs to a certain amount of bytes. On platforms where the pack file size is limited by filesystem constraints, it is easy to forget this option, and this option does not exist for "git gc" to begin with. So introduce a config variable to set the default maximum, but make this overrideable by the command line. Suggested by Tor Arvid Lund.

2008-02-06safecrlf: Add mechanism to warn about irreversible crlf conversionsLibravatar Steffen Prohaska1-0/+45
CRLF conversion bears a slight chance of corrupting data. autocrlf=true will convert CRLF to LF during commit and LF to CRLF during checkout. A file that contains a mixture of LF and CRLF before the commit cannot be recreated by git. For text files this is the right thing to do: it corrects line endings such that we have only LF line endings in the repository. But for binary files that are accidentally classified as text the conversion can corrupt data. If you recognize such corruption early you can easily fix it by setting the conversion type explicitly in .gitattributes. Right after committing you still have the original file in your work tree and this file is not yet corrupted. You can explicitly tell git that this file is binary and git will handle the file appropriately. Unfortunately, the desired effect of cleaning up text files with mixed line endings and the undesired effect of corrupting binary files cannot be distinguished. In both cases CRLFs are removed in an irreversible way. For text files this is the right thing to do because CRLFs are line endings, while for binary files converting CRLFs corrupts data. This patch adds a mechanism that can either warn the user about an irreversible conversion or can even refuse to convert. The mechanism is controlled by the variable core.safecrlf, with the following values: - false: disable safecrlf mechanism - warn: warn about irreversible conversions - true: refuse irreversible conversions The default is to warn. Users are only affected by this default if core.autocrlf is set. But the current default of git is to leave core.autocrlf unset, so users will not see warnings unless they deliberately chose to activate the autocrlf mechanism. The safecrlf mechanism's details depend on the git command. The general principles when safecrlf is active (not false) are: - we warn/error out if files in the work tree can modified in an irreversible way without giving the user a chance to backup the original file. - for read-only operations that do not modify files in the work tree we do not not print annoying warnings. There are exceptions. Even though... - "git add" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, the next checkout would, so the safety triggers; - "git apply" to update a text file with a patch does touch the files in the work tree, but the operation is about text files and CRLF conversion is about fixing the line ending inconsistencies, so the safety does not trigger; - "git diff" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, it is often run to inspect the changes you intend to next "git add". To catch potential problems early, safety triggers. The concept of a safety check was originally proposed in a similar way by Linus Torvalds. Thanks to Dimitry Potapov for insisting on getting the naked LF/autocrlf=true case right. Signed-off-by: Steffen Prohaska <prohaska@zib.de>
2008-02-05core.whitespace: cr-at-eolLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+4
This new error mode allows a line to have a carriage return at the end of the line when checking and fixing trailing whitespace errors. Some people like to keep CRLF line ending recorded in the repository, and still want to take advantage of the automated trailing whitespace stripping. We still show ^M in the diff output piped to "less" to remind them that they do have the CR at the end, but these carriage return characters at the end are no longer flagged as errors.

2007-12-05Color support for "git-add -i"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+12
This is mostly lifted from earlier series by Dan Zwell, but updated to use "git config --get-color" and "git config --get-colorbool" to make it simpler and more consistent with commands written in C. A new configuration color.interactive variable is like color.diff and color.status, and controls if "git-add -i" uses color. A set of configuration variables, color.interactive.<slot>, are used to define what color is used for the prompt, header, and help text. For perl scripts, Git.pm provides $repo->get_color() method, which takes the slot name and the default color, and returns the terminal escape sequence to color the output text. $repo->get_colorbool() method can be used to check if color is set to be used for a given operation.
